The Mount of Olives adjoins the Idig immediately to the north. The vineyards are located quite high on the Haardtrand and slope to the east-southeast. This means the vines get sun early in the morning. The early shade of the mountains brings relaxation to the vines, especially on hot days. Air currents from the neighboring Klausental in the Palatinate Forest bring additional cooling at night. The soil of the Knigsbacher lberg is characterized by tertiary limestone marl, the so-called terra fusca. In the topsoil it is mixed with red sandstone rubble. In the 2018 vintage, we grafted half of the old vines in our plot to French clones. The density and spice of the French clones, coupled with the finesse and elegance of the old vines, bring great tension to the wine.
